Technically it's a mixed variant, I can potentially win within T3-4 if I so choose to but it's more risky that way as I won't have built up enough resources to protect by winning line. To be specific it's a mid-range
Ad Nauseam
built where if it ever resolves during any mid-game the probability of winning is about 90%.

The other way to fight this deck is to keep Tymna from drawing cards. Good, efficient sweepers like
Toxic Deluge
,
Fire Covenant
, and
Pyroclasm
can help keep them off the gas pedal. There are a ton of other good sweepers, just make sure you can hit the board for 2 damage, and keep Tymna from hitting people.

If you take a good look at
Sanctum Prelate
, you'll see that it only stops noncreature spells. Blood Pod is a hatebears deck first and foremost, so a card like
Sanctum Prelate
really doesn't do much against Blood Pod.

The best way, in my opinion, to beat Blood Pod is to disrupt their card advantage, and then win quickly. Because it is a staxy creature deck, Blood Pod wants to drag the game out. With their big swingy creatures, they're advantaged in the long game. Sweep their card advantage away, and then combo them. It's hard because of their stax pieces, but that's the best way to combat them.

Beating Blood Pod is tough (it's a good deck and top tier for a reason!) but I hope this helps!
